And in Naples there is also a street with traditional workshops that even today make the Nativity scene characters of the Neapolitan tradition.

In addition to the many traditional, religious and folklore events, Campania offers modern and cultural events, such as festivals and exhibitions, and numerous theatrical seasons.
And huge venues to see as Royal Palace of Caserta, the so-called Italian Versailles
